Digitalisation and Vessel Performance
Our first Autumn event will be held in Rotterdam in September focusing on developments with maritime digitalisation (morning) and vessel performance technology (afternoon).
Digital technology has become more of an infrastructure topic. The communications systems themselves may become something of a commodity, but the systems for managing the data become the most important and most valuable part. And digital systems are getting very complicated, probably too complicated for people to use. The new generation may be tech savvy but they don't expect complexity.
Improving vessel performance is about knowing what investment options, or changes to our operation, make sense. Digital technology can help us monitor what is happening and work out which investments make sense. There is an enormous amount of raw data involved in vessel performance - the big challenge is gathering it together and modelling it, so it tells us what we need to know. We'll discuss how this could be done at Digital Ship Rotterdam.
The Netherlands is home of some of the world’s best maritime digital technology, a centre for maritime vessel performance innovation, and a centre for all kinds of industrial digital technology. The Netherlands is also one of the world’s most environmentally focused nations. We’ll bring all of this together at our Digital Ship Rotterdam event.
